Loading Font on FontManager

[HyCe]

hi, im started working on ogre, wich i think is great , and im now with a problem, wich i looked over and over here and found nothing, so i decided to post

i have a compile error on loading the font thru the font manager
i use this

Code: Select all

p_font = static_cast<Font*> (FontManager::getSingleton().getByName("font_name"));

but it gives this error

Code: Select all

error C2440: 'static_cast' : cannot convert from 'Ogre::ResourcePtr' to 'Ogre::Font *'
        No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this conversion, or the operator cannot be called

is there an other way ?

i use Azathot

You must be looking at some old code / tutorials. In Azathoth you use FontPtr, not Font* ie:

Code: Select all

FontPtr p_font = FontManager::getSingleton().getByName("font_name"); 

Note the lack of a need to cast things in Azathoth.

Thank you !
that's about it !
i looked here, for something changed in azathot, but didn't found anything, so i didn't knew what to do
